Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, olive oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the chopped plums, walnuts, almonds, and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Slice and serve the cake on its own or with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream if desired.
